The road to Xiangye City has been rushing for more than ten days, and the road blocked by heavy snow is not easy to walk, plus I have to memorize lines on the road and rehearse during breaks, so there is always very little time to rush. It wasn't until the fourteenth day that they finally arrived at Fragrant Leaf City.

After the Violet Song and Dance Troupe entered Xiangye City, they quickly found a hotel to live in.

"Alright, we're at the place. Hurry up and get to work, Alec, you arrange everyone's room. Girls can go and take a look on the street, but not for too long. As for me, now I'm going to talk to the theater owners in the city about renting rehearsal space, and I'm going to find other cabaret troupes. We're going to start making money!" Clarice commanded loudly, drawing sideways glances from passers-by.

Then Clarice rushed to Huey's eyes like a gust of wind, "Aren't you going to sell your potion? I'd love to see if your medicine can sell for a good price. ”

Then, without saying anything, he dragged Xiui into the streets, followed by a large group of girls from the cabaret troupe—they were ready to consume, even though they had very little in their pockets.

It is only at this time that Xiu Yi can really enjoy the cityscape here. It's a pity that when he traveled to another continent for nearly four years, it was the first time he had the opportunity to come to a big city.

Most of the buildings in Xiangye City are designed with dome spires, and the building materials used are mainly fragrant wood, a local specialty. Fragrant wood is an exceptionally hard wood that is ideal for processing into a variety of household utensils. This wood usually exudes a faint aroma, and if it is burned with fire or watered by rain, the aroma will become more and more intense. When most of the people in the whole Xiangye City take this fragrant wood as the main building material, every rainy day, the sky over the whole city will waft out a burst of fragrant fragrance, refreshing people's hearts, and the name of Xiangye City comes from this.

Huey noticed that most of the pedestrians here were gorgeously dressed, they seemed carefree, and their lives were very leisurely. The shops on the road are very open and well-decorated, and the shops are also dizzying.

Daisy, Lanti and the other girls kept running from one window to another, and then let out a fuss and exclaim, either praising this for being so beautiful, or screaming that they wanted that, and then they were discouraged and said that they had no money, or the sisters would make up some for me first.

"It looks like the city has a very good business atmosphere and the people here are very wealthy. To my surprise, Leaf City is not a very large city, it is an inland city, there is no port, there is no thriving maritime trade, and it is relatively remote in terms of location, so what did it rely on to develop?" Huey asked Clarice.

"Oh, and when it comes to Leaf City, it's rich thanks to its produce. Clarice tells Hue a few things about Leaf City.

The prosperity of Fragrant Leaf City benefits from the fragrant wood that is a specialty of this place. This wood, which can exude a rich aroma, has always been a favorite of the aristocracy, and has become a sought-after building material for the nobility of the empire and even the entire continent.

In Xiangye City, the most developed business is probably the trafficking of fragrant wood, and the most outstanding industry is probably the coloring and processing of fragrant wood. Merchants from all over the world come and go here, and there is an endless stream, which gradually drives the economic situation of the entire Xiangye City.

As a result, the city of Fragrant Leaves has become one of the richest and most beautiful cities in the Versails group, and it is said that it is likely to replace the old York City as the new capital of the Versails group in the future.

Due to years of logging, the growth status of fragrant trees has been seriously damaged, and now the fragrant trees have gradually decreased. People always know the rarity when they lose it, so they finally began to protect the fragrant wood. As a result, the price of fragrant wood has skyrocketed, and people have begun to use stone instead of wood to build houses. Nowadays, people who own a fragrant wood building do not have to worry about financial problems. The high price of Xiangye City did not reduce the income due to the lack of fragrant wood, so the rich business further increased the city's economic situation, so most of the residents of Xiangye City were wealthy, and people wanted to have fun when they were free, so it gradually became the premier entertainment center of the Versaila group.

Lemon Leaf City is the territory of Glora Abrite.

Another meaning behind the name Abrite represents is the sixth-level purple-robed space system Grand Magus.

This is a more noble status than a lord.

The fourth-level black-robed mage Adoris, who sent Xiu Yi to the island back then, was Ablit's student.

Since the space system is the most complex and profound magic of all magic series, it is extremely difficult to increase the level of the mage in the space system. The purple-robed mage Abrite is already the highest-ranking of the same magicians in the Reims Empire, although he is a purple-robed mage, he has the same status as the golden robe in terms of national treatment. The fief given to him by the Reims Empire was an entire city.

Xiu Yi knew that the spells of the space system were probably the strangest of all the spells. Low-level spatial spells are pitifully few and have poor utility, while high-level spatial spells are quite numerous and extremely powerful. Therefore, the vast majority of space mages will also cultivate at least one spell of other systems at the beginning of their cultivation. Abrite is also a fourth-level magician in the water department, and Erdoris is a fifth-level magician majoring in the fire department, and I heard that his mentor once reprimanded him for this - the archmage of the space department taught a student who majored in the space department and majored in the fire department.

However, for Xiuyi, the attraction of space spells is far less than that of alchemy. The reason why Abrite deserves his attention, and the reason why Blade City is worth his stay, is entirely because of another thing - legend has it that Abrite also has a notebook from Electra.

This news was accidentally learned when he was friends with Bailey.

Abrite regarded the notebook as the most proud treasure of his life, and although he was not an alchemist himself, he was equally self-conscious and reluctant to give it to anyone.

It is said that Hines once asked Ablitt for this notebook, but Ablit ruthlessly refused. This greatly annoyed Hines. During a deliberate attempt by Thuey, Thue discovered that Hines had a very bad impression of Ablit and had a very bad reputation, which meant that the rumor was likely to be true.

This was the real reason why he teleported himself to Versaila in the first place.

For Xiui, alchemy is the only magic that can be used to cast all the different spells at the same time, and although it is not a magic that can be used casually, it also has a great power that a mage does not have.

Before he can achieve Electra's ability, finding Electra's notes, following his footprints, studying his results, and satisfying his desire to travel the world are actually the plans he has made for himself at the moment.

Raschel's analysis of Huey, at least on this point, is correct, people like Huey can't walk aimlessly, people like them will always set a goal for themselves, and then pursue and advance towards that goal until they reach the top. However, it is clear that it is not for him to guess what Xiuyi's plan is. The asymmetry of information makes Raschel miscalculate his destination even though he sees where Xiu Yi is going, after all, he can't have imagined that Xiu Yi would be a traverser and not a real Huey Gler, which gives Xiu Yi more time to do what he wants to do - get another notebook.

It's just that in order to get that notebook, the space archmage Ablit is destined to be an insurmountable barrier.

You must know that although there are few varieties of space magic, every spell of space magic is extremely practical, and the power of space mages is also self-evident.

Teleportation allows you to come and go as freely as a ghost, shattering all barriers, creating a labyrinth of light that makes you permanently trapped in a labyrinth of space, and tearing through space banishes your opponent directly into the turbulence of space......

Almost all the magic associated with space spells is synonymous with powerful, terrifying, and difficult to resist.

As a sixth-level space archmage, Xiu had no doubt that Ablite would be proficient in at using at least three of the above spells.

It's just that to use such magic, the amount of magic required is also huge.

The magicians of the space system also complete their teleportation and spatial tearing behavior by opening the spatial barrier, but they do not have the power of the teleportation circle to circulate endlessly, so every time they open the spatial barrier, they have to pay a huge price. And the more you teleport yourself to a long distance, the more energy you consume. Therefore, even a purple-robed mage like Abrite could not teleport himself a long distance at once, let alone teleport an infinite number of times a day. Generally speaking, the teleportation distance of the spatial system will be limited by the field of vision, and it is impossible for them to teleport themselves to places beyond the reach of their field of vision, unless they have spatially located a place in advance.

Thinking of this, Xiu Yi suddenly had an extremely grotesque thought in his heart—could he use the energy circulation theory when making the teleportation circle to the cultivation of space spells?

This grotesque thought has been circulating in his heart for the rest of his life.

Xiu Yi knows very well that since the magician also needs to constantly consume mana to maintain it after breaking through the spatial barrier, he must teleport himself over immediately, otherwise this magic will be wasted, or directly drain his mana and stop automatically after it is exhausted.

But once he has the ability to circulate energy, it means that he can break through the spatial barrier, create a special channel that belongs only to him, and then use it at any time. He could even open multiple spatial barriers during this time, create multiple spatial passages, and connect them.

In this way, he can appear in different places multiple times in a row during a period of time, and travel freely.

And this has never been something that any space archmage can do.

Of course, the amount of mana required to break through multiple spatial barriers in a row is staggering, but if the distance is limited to a fixed small area, mana can be greatly saved. So if this method is used in battle, Xiu Yi can fully imagine himself disappearing and appearing in an instant in a certain area, constantly moving his position without any hindrance. This means that he will always have the initiative in the offensive. Even enemies who are stronger than him will be defeated by his elusive style of play.

This is somewhat like the phantom attack technique of a samurai when he has reached a high level. It's just that the phantom attack is caused by the afterimage left in the human eye by high-speed movement, and it is not really a teleportation. And his own approach can give him absolute control on the battlefield.

Of course, this approach doesn't do much in the face of powerful face-killing magic, but against opponents like high-ranking samurai, he greatly improves his survivability.

When he was on Purgatory Island, in order to survive, he had no way to study Dou Qi and magic, and most of his energy was spent on the study of alchemy. But at this moment, he was far away from that hellish world, and he finally realized that he still had a lot to learn, to improve, and to continue to study and explore.

And now the flash of inspiration in his mind undoubtedly opened an important door for him to learn magic.

Huey remembers the mystery of Electra's accomplishments – deepening his understanding of magic through his understanding of alchemy.

That's right, that's it. The energy cycle was invented by himself, and the magician did not understand how it worked. But he knows, he understands exactly what it does. What he needs to do now is how to complete this theoretical idea in practice.

He was now truly beginning to understand Electra, and there was no doubt that alchemy had provided him with this theoretical direction of exploration.

Although Xiu Yi did not have the talent to cultivate spatial magic, after mastering the principle of how things work, he was actually standing at a higher starting point than anyone else. And this, in fact, is more important than talent.

This is one of the secrets of Electra's achievement.

When he studied the flesh puppet, he had a breakthrough in soul magic, and when he studied the teleportation circle, in fact, he had already had the ability to learn space magic before he knew it.

Realizing this, Xiu Yi was really excited in his heart, he couldn't wait to experiment with his ideas now, and then master the mystery of spatial movement, so that his magic in the space system also has great power, becoming the third spell system he mastered after the wind system and the soul system.

If another mage knew what he was thinking, they might have reminded him that the cost of failing to innovate in space magic was likely to be lost in the turbulence of space forever, and that practicing multiple spells would also increase the risk of magical disorders.

But Huey is desperate to put himself on this path full of hardships but full of light.

This is the advantage and disadvantage of the lack of mentorship - self-development may allow you to go out of your own unique path and establish your own unique glory, but it can also go astray and go into the wrong place.

Risks and benefits always go hand in hand.

"Hey, I said, what are you thinking? boy. ”

Clarice's shouts pull Huey back from the ocean of thought.

He smiled a little awkwardly: "Just thinking about some things in the past." Freedom is wonderful, but for some reason it always reminds me of the bad old days...... I don't think it's nostalgia, it's just an emotion. Perhaps my heart is trying to confirm my happiness now through this contrast. ”

"I thought you wouldn't feel happy. You must have hated me for asking you for twenty gold wits. But I can't be blamed for that, who told you not to bargain. ”

"No, in fact I thank you. You are a very kind woman, just putting a tough disguise on yourself, but compared to my former master, you are as lovely as an angel. And because I am with you, I am spared the hardship of long journeys. I prefer to understand this money as the hard work of you to get me on my way. ”

"That's a good point, you've made me shy Fink, I don't want to ask you for money anymore. Clarice said, "Anyway, you've got a great idea for me, and if you can't sell it, I can buy it." ”

"Nope. Xiu Yi shook his head: "Actually, those potions don't mean anything to you, and for the Violet Song and Dance Troupe, maybe money is the most practical." I'll give you the money I'm supposed to give you after selling my potion, and you need it. ”

Clarice looked at Huey a little confused, and she asked, "Why? Why do you insist on compensating me for the money, knowing that the price I want is high? You don't even get angry, you don't get angry, you don't scold me? I'll tell you the truth, I only used less than two Jinwitt to fix the roof of a car. ”

"Why should I mind? Just because of those twenty Kinvets? That's not enough to make me hysterically angry. And I never thought that arguing, arguing, or even doing anything with a lady for some money would be a manifestation of virtue. If we can, we should be as generous as possible. I mean, we should try to forgive, understand and be tolerant of people and things that can be forgiven. ”

Clarice was a little surprised: "I never thought you were such a person. ”

"That's because the years I lived in were full of painful memories. I was faced with a demonic master, in a ghostly environment, and I had to be careful at all times. My friends will die, one after another, and I will keep smiling as if it doesn't affect me...... Can you understand that feeling? For me, I am afraid there is nothing more meaningful than life and freedom. In contrast, what you have done to me cannot cause any harm at all. ”

Huey replied with a smile. At this moment, he finally said what was in his heart. Yes, when a person lives long enough in hell and eventually returns to the world of light, he will find that every bit of life is worth savoring and rejoicing in. When Clarice spreads her hands and asks him for money, that's the first shot of him reconnecting to the world.

He didn't have any reason to turn this scene into gore, brutal, brutal, or anything else.

On the contrary, for him this moment deserves to be remembered forever, and if he can, he should make it as beautiful as possible.

It is like a prisoner who has been released from prison and breathes the air of freedom greedily, even in the face of the provocation of some hooligan on the street, he only feels fresh, interesting, and full of reality.

And for those who have experienced life and death struggles, this feeling of happiness is even stronger. How could he take such a thing to heart, complain and care like a housewife?

Just because a girl is trying to get more money from him, she loses her temper and teaches her a lesson?

Xiu asked himself if his bearing was not so narrow, even if he didn't have the ring of the rich country, it would be a bargain at best.

And now, if conditions permit, he is more willing to reward the other party with the twenty gold Witt like a tip, as a consumption souvenir of returning to the real world for the first time and enjoying a good life.

Clarice was silent for a long time before she nodded, "I see...... Fink, can you tell me, how did you survive such a death threat that drove ordinary people crazy? I mean, what was it that made you able to survive those difficult years at a young age?"

"It's hope. Huey replied.
